Question

Muraly 
Can anybody give names of all numbers with 10 raised to the power of 1 to 53?. There were such names in India.
I had read it from some web site that Indian Mathematics contained names for all numbers which are multiples of ten till 10 reaised to the power of 53, but now I am unable to get it.

Muraly, will you believe it, it took me so much effort to find the answer of your question. I went to meet a really genius mathematician(who most of people claim is eccentric). He is a great scholar and researcher of Indian mathematics. I learnt the great history of mathematics from him. Unfortunately, I am little weak(very weak) in mathematics. Whatever I understood, I am reproducing it here. Please get it confirmed from some mathematician. I can`t gurantee the correctness of that matematicians saying. It was scary talking with him. He said... 10^1 : Dasum teevraupra aakem 10^2 : Dasum teevraupra deewum ... 10^53: Dasum teevraupra teerpannum He obviously translated it for me from ancient language. If you want the original pronounciation, I will provide you. It`s heavily sanskritised.
